TEMP UNDO TABLESPACE : Another 12C Feature

Posted on by Osama Mustafa in Database
Testing is not finished yet , Everyday working on database 12C  , Lot Of New Features , TEMP_UNDO_TABLESPACE one of these new features, In older Oracle Versions Temp Tables are stored in Undo Tablespace, But now with #DB12c you can enable Parameter TEMP_UNDO_TABLESPACE by Default this parameter set to FALSE But in Dataguard 12c  this parameter is set to TRUE by default.

The Benefit of Using Temp Undo Tablespace :

  • reduce the amount of using undo tablespace
  • in this case performance improved because less data will be written on redolog.
  • Temp Undo Tablespace support DML 

SQL> show parameter TEMP_UNDO_ENABLED;

NAME     TYPE VALUE
———————————— ———– ——-
temp_undo_enabled     boolean FALSE

You Don’t have to reset Database to Enable this Parameter because it’s working on Session level 

SQL> alter session set temp_undo_enabled=TRUE   ;
Session altered.

also you set this parameter on database level :

SQL> alter system set temp_undo_enabled=true;
System altered.

SQL> show parameter temp_undo_enabled ;

NAME     TYPE VALUE
———————————— ———– ——-
temp_undo_enabled     boolean TRUE

Database 12c Installation

Posted on by Osama Mustafa in Database
1. Download the Oracle Database 12.1 Software from OTN
2. Make sure Oracle Database Software and OS are certified using https://support.oracle.com
3. Make sure of the following

Hardware

you need to configure Swap Memory And make sure you RAM is enough to avoid Out Of memory during the installation.

Software

as i mention before check certified OS with database, in my case i will use Redhat 6 update 4.

install Packages :

binutils-2.20.51.0.2-5.11.el6 (x86_64)
glibc-2.12-1.7.el6 (x86_64)

inside /etc/sysctl.conf

fs.file-max = 6815744
kernel.sem = 250 32000 100 128
kernel.shmmni = 4096
kernel.shmall = 1073741824
kernel.shmmax = 4398046511104
net.core.rmem_default = 262144

net.core.wmem_default = 262144
net.core.wmem_max = 1048576
fs.aio-max-nr = 1048576
net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range = 9000 65500

Use this command to restart kernel  /sbin/sysctl -p

/etc/hosts

  Serverip                Hostname

 /etc/security/limits.conf

oracle   soft   nofile    1024
oracle   hard   nofile    65536
oracle   soft   nproc    2047
oracle   hard   nproc    16384
oracle   soft   stack    10240
oracle   hard   stack    32768

/etc/pam.d/login

session required pam_limits.so

after edit OS parameter you need to create Oracle user :

groupadd -g 101 oinstall
groupadd -g 102 dba
groupadd -g 103 oper

 useradd -u 100 -g oinstall -G dba,oper oracle

passwd oracle

copy media to your Server , and do the following :

chown -R oracle:oinstall /u01/database
chmod -R 775 /u0/database
mkdir -p /u01/app/oracle/product/12.1.0/db_1
chown -R oracle:oinstall /u01
chmod -R 775 /u01

now start installation by ./runInstaller


to Create Database you need to configure listener using netca and after finished successfully use dbca like below :

Which module You installed on Apps

Posted on by Osama Mustafa in Application
Sometimes you need to check which module you installed in oracle E-business suite and to do that there’s more one way :

using Query / as Apps User :

SELECT a.application_name,a.product_code,
DECODE (b.status, ‘I’, ‘Installed’, ‘S’, ‘Shared’, ‘N/A’) status,
patch_levelFROM apps.fnd_application_vl a,
apps.fnd_product_installations b
WHERE a.application_id = b.application_id
and b.status=’I’ order by product_code asc;

Using adutconf.sql scripts which is located in $AD_TOP

This script include information about Product installation status, version and other information.

Using Oracle Application Manager ( OAM )

Site Map —> License Manager Which licensed word means installed.

Simple

Thank you
